Package: lapack3-doc Version: 3.0.20000531a-5 Severity: normal Hi
i have lapack-doc and lapack3-doc from an old times when they where seemingly not conflicting. Since a few monthes i have let it go by holding the package (i did not know if lapack and lapack3 where both supposed to reach sarge). When letting it upgrade i end up with : Preparing to replace lapack-doc 3.0.20000531a-25 (using .../lapack-doc_3.0.20000531a-26_all.deb) ... Document `lapack-doc.qref' is not installed, cannot remove. Document `lapack-doc.release' is not installed, cannot remove. Document `lapack-doc.faq' is not installed, cannot remove. Document `lapack-doc.lug' is not installed, cannot remove. Unpacking replacement lapack-doc ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/lapack-doc_3.0.20000531a-26_all.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man3/cgbequ.3.gz', which is also in package lapack3-doc dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/lapack-doc_3.0.20000531a-26_all.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) But lapack3-doc is now in testing when lapack-doc is already in sarge. As i don't know the severity for a will happen bug in sarge, i let it on normal ... Most package that i knwo which Replace another also conflict with it. Maybe this could be used for lapack3-doc (i don't know if lapack-doc should also replace/conflict lapack3-doc, but it looks safer to me as both will end up in the stable release). Please close the bug if i misunderstood your plan. I don't really understand why both atlas2/lapack3 and atlas3/lapack end up in the stable release .
